Fly Report: 28th April 2006

There must be some way out of here, said the joker to the thief, There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief

OK, so writers' block didn't happen. Damn!

There is temperature and weather in Kirkwall and Cody, Barstow, etc. Go to Weather.com if you need to know the weather, not TSTF. Our real goal is to present news and analyses (often referred to as "Fly rants") that you won't find anywhere else (fortunately.)

The exchange rate on the US dollar is down because gasoline prices are up. Now isn't that a little piece of heaven! The Fed says that because our balance of trade is tilted in favor of imports (without oil imports BTW, because it would "skew" the positive results they need), our dollar will buy less overseas because of concerns about Federal spending and our increasing debt load; however, our improved productivity metrics will offset some of the negative GDP drivers created by declining sales of new homes. So, as you can clearly see, no matter what we do, it's gonna cost a ton to visit our significant other if he/she lives across town. However, it has been scientifically proven that biological forces will kick in and offset any reluctance to stay home and watch reruns of Law & Order.

(The above has been included to placate those who say TSTF has lost its pithy, incisive, intellectual edge.)

Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day is: (OK)(Not OK)(Out there)

Today's scripture reading is 1 Genesis 5. The Fly is reading Desert Hygiene Can Be Fun. (Author's note: Movie rights have already been sold and word on the street is that Madonna and Jon Heder have already been signed to play the roles of Princess Lea and Darth Vader. Is this a great country to live in or what?)

And finally, song lyrics:
No reason to get excited, the thief, he kindly spoke,
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke


Thus Saith Pseudo Fly
